【EV Vision Report】From April 1, the latest version of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" and the "Measures for the Administration of Scoring points for Road Traffic Safety Violations" began to be officially implemented. The implementation of this new traffic regulation is also related to the driver and everyone who will become a driver, as for the difference between this new traffic regulation and the old traffic regulation, the following is a careful analysis of a wave for everyone.
Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses
Let's first say that the Ministry of Public Security's newly revised "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses", after carefully reading the relevant provisions, the author found that the revision of the new driving test regulations is more scientific and more practical, and the overall direction is being optimized and adjusted in the direction of becoming more and more convenient and beneficial to the people. Whether it is young people, the elderly, the disabled, or people living in different places, they can enjoy the convenience of the new regulations.
Who says you can't take a driver's license at 70?
Age is the "hard threshold" for applying for a driver's license. Before the implementation of the new regulations, the age requirements for driving licenses were very strict. With the continuous optimization of the driver's license application system, the age has gradually relaxed. As early as November 2020, the Ministry of Public Security abolished the upper age limit of 70 years for applying for driving licenses for small cars, small automatic cars, and mopeds.
Nowadays, the minimum age and upper age for obtaining certain driving licenses have been adjusted, and the age requirement for applying for small cars (C1), small automatic cars (C2), small automatic passenger cars for the disabled (C5), and mopeds (F) is required to be over 18 years old, and the restriction on 70 years old is abolished.
If you are over 70 years old and want to apply for a driver's license, as long as you can pass the memory, judgment, reaction and other ability tests, you can apply for a small car, a small automatic car for the disabled, a moped quasi-driving type of motor vehicle driving license.
In addition to adjusting the age of application for small cars, the age requirement for urban buses, large trucks, trolleybuses or trams that originally applied for the quasi-driving type of city buses, large trucks, trolleybuses or trams is required to be over 20 years old, under 50 years old, and the age requirement for medium-sized buses is 21 years old or older, and under 50 years old, this time they are combined together, that is, those who apply for city buses, medium-sized buses, large trucks, light traction trailers, trolleybuses, and trams are allowed to drive, and the age requirements are unified at more than 20 years old and under 60 years old.
At the same time, the new regulations add a quasi-driving type "light traction trailer", that is, a C6 driving license, applying for a light traction trailer quasi-driving license, which can only be obtained through "increased driving", allowing the driving of light traction trailers, better meeting the needs of the masses to drive RVs, and promoting the development of new forms of caravan tourism. The threshold for increasing the light traction trailer (C6) is lower than that of the heavy traction trailer (A2), as long as the age is over 20 years old, under 60 years old, small car (C1) or small automatic car (C2) quasi-driving type driver's license holder for more than one year, and there is no record of 12 points in the most recent scoring cycle.
It is worth mentioning that owners who want to obtain a driver's license for a small car (C1) or a small automatic car (C2) can study directly on their own without having to go through driving school.
The internship logo will be a thing of the past
All along, the existence of the internship period is to restrict novices on the road to a certain extent, including posting internship signs, prompting the rear car to be "taken care of", limiting the ability to get on the highway alone, and reducing the safety hazards caused by the lack of high-speed driving experience of novices.
According to the new regulations, "The 12-month internship period is after a motor vehicle driver first obtains a quasi-driving type of automobile or a quasi-driving type of motorcycle for the first time." "It can be seen from the regulations that in the past, no matter what kind of driving license or additional driving license was obtained, there was a 12-month internship period, and from April 1, only the first time to obtain a motor vehicle driving license or the first time to obtain a motorcycle driving license, there was a 12-month internship period.
Optimize exam content and programs
Large cars generally refer to large buses, heavy traction trailers, city buses, medium-sized buses, and large trucks, all of which are models with relatively difficult operation and heavy responsibilities of highway drivers, and it is relatively difficult to obtain such driver's licenses. For example, the general small car (C1) exam of subject 2 has only 5 items, but the big car has 16 exam items. Some optimizations have been made in the new regulations, eliminating the "through continuous obstacles" and "undulating road driving" projects, from 16 projects to 14.
For large buses and medium-sized buses, according to the previous requirements, not only the examination items of subject two are more, but also the road examination requirements of subject three are also higher. The test mileage of subject 3 in the new regulations is reduced from not less than 20 km to no less than 10 km, in addition, applying for city buses (A3) and large trucks (B2), the daytime test mileage is not less than 5 km, and the night test mileage is not less than 3 km. Where night examinations are not conducted, a simulated night lighting examination shall be conducted. The difficulty of the test has been reduced, and it has become more convenient for candidates to obtain driving qualifications.
For those who hold a small automatic car driving license to drive other small cars, or hold a motorcycle driving license to drive other types of motorcycles, only subjects 2 and 3 are tested, and the test procedure is optimized. Of course, in the subject three safe and civilized driving knowledge test has also added the content of first aid knowledge for the injured.
Reinstatement of driving qualification examinations "inter-provincially available"
After obtaining the driver's license, the renewal of the license can not be ignored, only after the third renewal of the license, it will be reissued with a long-term valid motor vehicle driving license. The new regulations restore the "inter-provincial can be done" driving qualification examination, which means that if the driver's license is cancelled for less than two years after the validity period has not been renewed, the applicant can apply to any place in the country to take the subject one examination, restore the driving qualification, and better meet the needs of the masses for the replacement of the certificate in different places.
Two new measures to reduce certificates and facilitate services
The new regulations on the driving test not only change the content and requirements of the driving test, but also two new measures to reduce the certificate and facilitate the service will be implemented. The first convenience measure is to implement the electronic application materials and archives, implement the electronic collection of application materials, electronic management of archives, and the online transmission of driver test information, so as to realize the "reduction of links, materials, and time limits" of traffic management business. The second is to implement departmental information networking and verification, which means that information networking with medical institutions and other departments, sharing information such as physical examinations, and exempting the masses from submitting relevant certification certificates when handling business.
Measures for the Administration of Scoring of Road Traffic Safety Violations
After talking about the above-mentioned "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses", let's take a look at the latest "Measures for the Administration of Scoring of Road Traffic Safety Violations". According to the severity of traffic violations, the new regulations set up five grades of scoring such as 12 points, 9 points, 6 points, 3 points and 1 point at a time.
Under the premise of maintaining the management of illegal acts that seriously hinder traffic safety, such as drunk driving, fleeing after causing casualties in traffic accidents, and using forged and altered license plates, the demerit points for some traffic violations have been reduced, and the demerit points for traffic violations such as driving without placing inspection signs and insurance signs have been deleted. Where the circumstances of the traffic violation are minor and a warning punishment is given, points are waived. In the new measures, there are 7 categories of illegal acts with 12 points at a time, 7 categories with 9 points at a time, 11 categories with 6 points at a time, 15 categories with 3 points at a time, and 10 categories with 1 point at a time.
20% of speeding is not deducted points?
Before the implementation of the new regulations, the deduction standard on the highway was no demerit points for speeding within 10%, 3 points for speeding 10%-20%, 6 points for speeding 20%-50%, and 12 points for speeding for more than 50%. To put it simply, if the high-speed speed limit is 120km/h, there will be no fines or demerit points below 132km/h, and after the new regulations are introduced, this range will be increased to 144km/h. However, it should be noted that although there is no score or fine, this is still illegal, so if it is not some emergency or overtaking, we should still drive at a speed of 120km/h.
In addition to high-speed, ordinary roads also apply this new regulation, the general speed limit in the city is 60km/h, the ring road is 80km/h, that is to say, the city opens 72km/h and the ring road opens 96km/h and there will be no deduction of points and fines. The higher speed limit will undoubtedly effectively alleviate the problem of road traffic congestion, and many daily traffic jams are caused by some car owners who are reluctant to step on the accelerator.
The following behaviors increase the penalty!
Although the new rules are partially relaxed in the detailed rules, some provisions are also more severely punished! Including traffic jams, from the original deduction of 2 points to 3 points; driving to answer or make calls, from the original deduction of 2 points to 3 points; illegal parking on high-speed roads, the use of emergency lanes in non-essential cases, from the original deduction of 6 points to 9 points; in the case of traffic jams, arbitrarily interspersed with traffic or borrowing lanes to overtake, from the original deduction of 2 points to deduct 3 points.
In addition, the punishment for selling points has also become more severe, and now once it is discovered, it will be deducted 12 points, so don't help others to eliminate points for the sake of fly-head small profits, this is really not worth the loss!
In addition, for vehicles driving at turtle speeds in the fast lane, that is, the speed is lower than the calibrated minimum speed limit, the deduction point is increased from 2 points to 3 points.
The new rules also introduce a deduction of points for learning methods, which is mainly to give drivers one more way to deduct points. You can take the traffic law knowledge in traffic management 12123 and pass the exam, and you can deduct up to 6 points in a scoring cycle.
Penalties are more humane
In addition to the increased speed limit, many penalties have become more humane. For example, before the number plate was obscured and the number plate of the motor vehicle was not hung according to the regulations, it was deducted 12 points at a time, and now it is uniformly changed to 9 points. This does give the driver a chance to make a mistake, because sometimes it is not deliberately obscured the number plate, but after being obscured, it is completely unaware, and it seems a little too wrong to deduct 12 points at once.
In addition, there are several penalties that have become lighter, first of all, the driving vehicle is inconsistent with the permitted vehicle, from the original deduction of 12 points to 6 points, not in accordance with the provisions of the school bus, from the original deduction of 12 points to deduct 9 points, the vehicle did not place the inspection sign and insurance mark in accordance with the deduction items have been deleted, because now the digital version of the insurance policy, you can view online, paste the inspection mark does not have much meaning.
